Itinerary

Pick Up in Reykjavík

Your guide will collect you from your designated pick up location from 8:00am. Please note it may take up to 30 minutes for your guide to arrive depending on your location and traffic conditions.

Hveragerði

This small town is located around 40 minutes from Reykjavík renowned for it's location amongst a geothermal field! We'll stop here for a short stop at a local bakery and shopping area. There are restrooms, a bakery and an exhibition about earthquakes. 

Gullfoss

Our adventure will then lead us to the breathtaking Gullfoss, aptly named the "golden waterfall," situated at the very edge of the Icelandic Highlands. Cascading gracefully within the canyon of the Hvíta River, Gullfoss is fed by the Langjökull glacier to the north, lending it a majestic aura. As a two-tiered waterfall, Gullfoss plunges an impressive 32 meters. Regardless of the season, Gullfoss captivates with its awe-inspiring beauty, making it a must-see destination on our journey through Iceland's natural wonders.

Geysir

Our next destination is the Geysir geothermal field, home to one of the world's most renowned geysers—the very namesake of these incredible natural wonders! Here, you'll have the chance to wander amidst bubbling water pools, crystal-clear geothermal springs, and steam vents. Keep your eyes peeled for the spectacular sight of a geyser erupting before you. Although now dormant, Geysir once held the title of the tallest geyser in history, towering an impressive 122 meters (400 ft) into the sky. But fear not, for Geysir's little brother, Strokkur, has stepped into the limelight. As the most active geyser in Iceland, Strokkur puts on a mesmerizing show, erupting every 4 to 10 minutes, ensuring you'll have plenty of opportunities to witness its breath-taking eruptions.

Þingvellir

To round out our day of fun and adventure; our last stop will be at the iconic Þingvellir (Thingvellir) National Park, where nature's wonders intertwine with rich history, creating one of Iceland's most captivating attractions. As you step into Þingvellir, you'll immediately notice its unique setting in a rift valley—a powerful reminder that our planet's crust is in constant motion.

But that's not all! Here, you'll also discover Althing, Iceland's very first national parliament and breathtaking views of Þingvallavatn lake. 

Drop Off in Reykjavík

After a memorable day exploring some of Iceland's most iconic landscapes, your guide will drop you back off in Reykjavík from your chosen drop off location.
